“BE A WITNESS OF THE JOY
TO BE CONSECRATED PERSON”
From 29th October to 29 November, 2018 the six month preparation for the perpetual vows made a thirty days in Sacred Heart Retreat House and Seminar Center at Novalices, Philippines. We have opportunity to journey in our life’s vocation with spiritual exercises of St. Ignatius. In this thirty days retreat we are able to know better about our strength and our weaknesses. Through our intimate times with Jesus Christ, we are able to go to our inner life in saying yes, as well as the confirmation of our first vows to be a full member of SS.CC congregation. As a religious person we are all invited by Jesus to be a witness of joy as well as a consecrated person. And we finally said “Lord here I am, Sen me” (Isaiah 6, 8-13).
